IrV A GLEN.
? Wild hollow deeply cloven In the hills, ?
Oh, faint lit cloistral harborage of rest!
1 "Where silence, drowsing on thy placid breast.
Is lolled with low, half noiseless noise of rills;
Where gray hill shadows keep the noontide cool,
Where no rudo world born dissonance intrudes.
The-heart evolves within thy solitudes, ?$_.
From formless dreams the formed and beautiful'
What wonder I have chosen thee, dark glen,
i For song and rest, since following thy streams,
I lonely, rapt in tremulous gladness, far
From turmoil and the narrow ways of men,
; Have known the light of slo ly HridTing
dreams,
And nebulous thought con centring to a star ?
?George L. Moore in The Spectator.
AN MIAN STUDENT.
. It was more than three thousand years
ago, in that golden era when "Cinderella"
and "Kid and I" were coming out, that a
party of students, young Aryans, while
pursuing their studies under the- shadows
of the great Himalayas, were summoned
by their teacher, a deeply read priest, to
overlook the doings of a company of
Daryas or slaves, who were erecting a
curious stone temple in honor of some
potentate. The erudite instructor bade
them observe the deft way in which these
artisans handled their flint hammers in
. cutting and shaping their material, and
the skill they displayed In fitting their ;
blocks together into a growing whole,
mosff exquisite in its symmetry and beauty.
Then he turned him about and looked
down. Suddenly his eyes sparkled with
! the light of a strange discovery, which, in
another instant, had fascinated the gaza
of every member of Ms class.
It was a living toad, an actual sentient
thing, that had lain imbedded In the ,
heart of a great bowlder the pickrhaT?r:)
just cloven,. why, ever since the world
was made! Yes, alive! At first it-?y^j
perfectly still, but presently it quivered'
as though its delicate epidermis at this
first contact with the atmosphere' suffered
a spasm of astonishment, but the more it
quivered the more it seemed to rally its
forces,, until after a tedious series of con?
vulsive squirmings it succeeded In mus
. tering sufficient energy to hop out of its
cell, and presently to open a pair of bright
eyes and spy about itself where it '!now!
squatted under the shadow of a mass of :|
piled up rocks. Did its amazement ? beor
comparison with that of the student look?
ers on? !
"It's a mifacler' ejaculated one,' -the
tallest and fairest skinned of the- whole "|
group. It chanced that he had witnessed,
with his own-eyes, -the cleaving of the
rock, and had looked on its imprisoned in?
habitant at the very instant when' the
light first touched him. "Oh, what to me
would be an experience like that! To die,. |
to be shut away, ages and ages, from the
time I was born in?now?for instance, I
?to shut my eyes?and then to wake up..
- "4 - 'What will the world be, oh, I wonder, as
^c^ fronijhis time forward as from how

'So would I," shouted a soldierly look
ing young fellow, throwing back his head
as though bracing himself to fight , any
adverse circumstances that might stand
in tt way of .his putting the thing
through. "They say the world is grow?
ing wiser. I'd like to pit my brains
against those of a class of young fellows
born, say, 1,000 years hence,"
"And so would. I miner" "And II"
"And II" "And II" was echoed all
around The two -first- speakersrvbeing
class leaders it was fashionable to. follow
their fancies.
"Good," was the comment of the priest.
He uttered his monosyllable in a deep,
awesome voice, and being a personage of
grave presence and imposing dignity of
bearing, the students, as was their custom,,
all bowed their heads and reverently put
themselves in listening attitudes while he
' - . spoke an.
"I see It written in my book." He
pointed with his staff to the -creature's
pretty well bleached, but still distinctly
mottled back. "One among yon is com-'
manded?one." The rod pointed?moved.
There wasn't a young fellow of them all.
who didn't believe in his heart that what?
ever the appointment might be, it was cer?
tain to fall on him, and, for the most
part, every youngster who had said, "and
I," in his inmost soul fervently wiahed ha
hadn't. But they were brave Aryan
boys, and, one and all, they sturdily held
themselves composed while the next fate-1
ful words found voice. "One,- among
those here before me, who has been dedi
- cated to that experience,"
: But which one?
The students looked at each other with
?* . white faces. There were twenty-three of
- them. The priest, without further pre?
liminary words, proceeded to gather up
twenty-three pebble* stones, on each of
which he scratched a cabalistic character,
copied, he indicated, from the living page,
which he again knelt down to study.
These he solemnly distributed, it being
understood that a certain one bore the
mystic mandate which appointed for its
drawer a far off mundane resurrection to
be obtained through entering Immediately
into mundane oblivion.
O, the wild, shuddering heart beats that
' ' prevailed during that momentous dis?
tribution! lb was Ono, the very one who
.^""nadrtTftjached such a rjossibflity, on whom
the lot fell. Even his bold face blanched
when he heard his own name called. He
was 14 years old, a daring, haughty, self
willed, but precociously intelligent young
fellow, with a mind forever on the alert
for new discoveries, and for tracing out
the causes and meanings of things. He,
with all his healthy, throbbing pulses,
and his intense rigor of life and thought;?
oblivion for him?
Tho word, however, had been said. He
. : did not flinch, but silently, at the beck of
his instructor, placed himself in the fore?
ground' and assumed a prone position.
The very pulses of the lookers on seemed
to have stopped their throbbings as they
circled round their daring classmate in.
this awfully fateful moment.
"How long, O priest, how long is it that
he must be dead?" whispered one,'in the
Intense strain of the moment, forgetful
even of the immeasurable distance that
lay between his young existence and that
of the mystio oracle.
"Till he is called," was tho stern an?
swer.
The speaker directly turned his counte?
nance with a mighty intentness of obser?
vation upon his youthful subject. Ono's
eyes met his. Presently he seemed to see,
not a pair of human eyes, but, through
them, the approaching vistas of a strange
new world, opening out, radiant and lur?
ing just before him. He said?was that
Tifrngftif? Himself?and clothed in a gar?
ment woven from threads made up of all
the memories of his life, some pure white
?how they softened and beautified the
whole! "Would there were more of
theml" was his reflection. Some gleamed
an angry red. O that he could tear them
out! If he had only withheld them from
getting in! Some were changeable-r-rec
ords of deceits. Ono looked at them and
his whole soul vibrated under a blush of
shame. No hue. however, either in warp
or woof had as yet, he said, become in?
delible. Here and there, too, a vicious
thread was seen to be fading under the
sunlight of unselfish affections and brave
endeavor. That was sweet to know.
Presently all melted into indistinctness,
giving placo to a deliriously restful con*
sdousness of peace.
That was the moment when, to the
eyes of the horror stricken lookers on,
their bold young associate, the very pride
and idol of tho class, yielded up his life.
Not one dared speak. It was treason to
question tho right of this potential ruler
to direct their destinies, to dispose of
their lives, oven according as he willed
More than treason. This being was pos?
sessed of superhuman capabilities. He
had simply smitten the boy, Ono, with a
look. Never so much as a finger's tip had
he laid upon his person. A look had
compelled his life to depart out of him.
He bent h self now, overshadowing the
pulseless body with his gaunt person,
while his hands played a kind of rhyth?
mical movement in the air above it. At
length a mute gesture announced to the
boys, "It is finished"
Upon that a great wail rent the air.
Unnoticed by the boys, and even by the
priest himself, so entirely did the work he
had in hand tax the forces of his soul, the
little group which surrounded the pros?
trate body had been silently augmented
to a multitude. All Ono's kinsfolks were
there?father, mother and a swarm of
sisters and brothers, and it was at first
with no assenting demonstrations that
they comprehended the nature of this
very pronounced miracle, They were
speedily given to understand, however,
that there Was nothing for them but to
submit. Perhaps, too, they took pride in
the fact that, of all the world, their boy (
had been selected for this high destiny.
Of course they never could expect to sea
him again, that is, with the eyes that had
been accustomed to watch over his wel?
fare, but in the far future, after they had
been the rounds of occupancy through
some thousands of different species of the
earth's inhabitants, the hope was held
ont to them that some member of the
family might be his elephant, perhaps, or
his horse, and have the privilege of bear?
ing him on bis back on his triumphant
processions. He -would require two sing?
ing birds and all kinds of pet animals.
These "were consolations not to be des?
pised. Indeed the priest gave it as his
opinion that, in some shape or other, they
might all hope to be present at the show.
It would be a long story to detail the
precautions that were taken for the pres?
ervation of the vacated tenement in the
meantime. Of course' Its receptacle wa3
contrived so as to fit it pretty closely, and
with that Wonderful cement, which the
Darvas alone of all India knew the secret
of preparing, it was made perfectly air
tight.
A great crowd kept guard about it all
that night and through the next day, in?
deed for many days and nights afterward.
The boys brought jars of water and quan?
tities of toothsome things to eat from time
to time, through every day and night for
a long while, laying their offerings
against the stone on which the priest had
recorded, in his mystic characters, the
story and the time of the removal, with
the prophecy of a return.
- Not yet, however, was the voting class
* leader ready to wake up and burst through
. his adamantine covering. Hunger will
' break through a stone walL There is a
.tradition that this proverb originated then
and there. - Ono had been remarkable for
his excellent appetite, and he would
probably come ont pretty hungry. But
-his time was not yet.
And so the years passed. The boys
grew.old and left their own bodies to be
gathered Into their graves, and the story
of Ono. came at length to be known only
as a tradition. "Indeed, even the spot,
sacred in old times to Ono's ownership,
came to be forgotten, for as the age crept

igrand sculptured memorials; poor Ono's
'modest tablet made no show at all. There
it remained, however; the Daryas had
done their work welL
And Ono? Did he sleep? Not certainly,
for long. The next he knew was the
touch of gentle hands. O, bo gentle!
Surely he was awake. And now alive he
was in all his senses 1 It was as though,
until now, the whirl and tumult of exist
: ence had deadened his perceptions to life's
i realities. If he had thought of it, it
anight have seemed unaccountable that
:the people about him, though not his own
homefolk. or his school fellows, he already
knew most intimately. .They had been
close about Mm through- his whole life.
But he had no consciousness- of himself.
He was simply absorbed in learning and
in bringing; his acquirements into use.
Still a student, he had entered upon an
advanced course. Hitherto the surface
had been all. Now what chapters, won?
ders within wonders, were revealed in the
commonest things about him I The
smallest leaf, the tiniest insect?all life
being of the spiritual world?now that his
eyes were opened, have written on them
-treasares- -of "wisdom inexhaustible. So
was ho made aware that in the processes
of spiritual gr/wth lives each minutest
detail of the actuating thought. It was
only, however, as his understanding be?
came illuminated by sweet affections, and
only as he made knowledge of avail by
giving forth, that these wondrous pages
unfolded themselves before him.
Perhaps he was intrusted with the con?
veying of suggestions to people in the ma?
terial world. If so, he did not reflect upon
it, for he never thought of himself, at
least ol che uses be performed, as ap?
pertaining to himself. If he had speculated
upon what heaven might be like?he
? never had?he could not have imagined an
existence more perfect in delight than his
genial and ceaseless occupation made for
him.
He had been too busy to give a thought
to that last earthly experience of his, un?
til now, right in the heyday of his joyous
activities, he was suddenly overtaken by
an unaccountable stupor. I cannot say
he lost himself. He had learned that
nothing can be lost. But he seemed in
spired in his work by the restraints of
some clogging environment and his forces
called a halt
Meanwhile, in those very old times,
though the human race was, as now,
steadily advancing in enlightenment, no
body dreamed of the wonderful scripture
that was writing itself along the centuries
in the world's history. But the era had
now come when this majestic truth stood
forth revealed, and everything of science
r was brought to bear in its interpretations.
Men studied the earth's strata, and a
mania prevailed for cringing out into
modern sunlight the stone relics of past
civilizations. And so it came about that
on a recent day a party of eager scientists
deciphered the unique inscription that re?
corded Ono's experimental interment. A
record that proclaimed itself to have stood
for more thirty centuries I But what?
what was this? The savants?they were
all men of large brains, and every indi?
vidual was quite an adept in analytical
interpretations ?adjusted their glasses
and compared their readings anew. They
agreed.' Here: stood a promise, so they
unanimously deciphered it, uttered in no
ambiguous terms?the transcriber had
been in earnest?a bold, straightforward
guarantee that when the time was ripe
the body inclosed within should be vital?
ized anew. -
The wise men looked at each other and
smiled) perhaps derisively. "But grams
have retained their vitality in Egyptian
mummy cases for thousands of years,"
some one remarked. AU the rest said
"BBhawl" But that was all. After a mo?
ment they grew graver. Whatever subtle
influence had token hold of them they
themselves could not have told. Presently
they stood with bated breath and spoke
low to each other. They must explore
this thing.
It would toko long to detail how, step
by step, these scholars, with reverent
touch and tender, patient skill, not per?
mitting the intervention of any hireling

locked and its treasure lay revealed?sim?
ply a sleeping boy. Surely not a specta?
cle from which those learned men need
shrink. The pure, calm face suggested a
new creation awaiting the breath of life
rather than a legacy from the far past!
And yet?it was on instinct they would
not have analyzed?these wise, deep think?
ing sages bored their head and circled
round a little way apart. Too near prox?
imity might disturb the sanctity of that
repose. To touch it by a breath were
desecration.
But never was center of Interest gazed
at with such concentrated, strained at?
tention. Did they count the seconds it
would take for contact with the outer air
to crumble this fair outline into dust?
They had no thought, no theory, no power
but to gaze on. They might have stood
there thus, spellbound, for minutes or for
hours. They never knew. What occult
power was this which had laid its hold
upon the very volition of those investi?
gators impelling that combined intensity
of observation? As they all afterward
described it, there seemed to grow into
then* minds a sense of kinship with this
revelation as they looked, and they were
conscious of an involuntary reaching
forth, as it were, of their matured vitality
responsive to a something knocking at
their hearts.
No eye could freo itself from that en
thralbnent. Lo, and as they looked did
they dream? Surely there was movement.
The pulses were astir I Light dawned,
flickered, hovered in fitful gleams upon
the passive face! It was there, preserved
through all the centuries, that mystery
which physiologists define as the principle
of receptivity of life. It was a human
will which had paralyzed its action. The
magnetism of that encircling human pres?
ence had revivified it. Why, their hearts
were warming to an actual boyish person?
ality. Brightening it was, too, mirroring
ever more and more distinctly an infinity
of human traits, Ono's individuality.
And behold, even while they looked, there
in then: midst he stood, clothed in the
garment be bad so long ago put off. A
boy? No; they saw him of "the stature
of a man; that is, of an angel," all aglow
with an enlightenment, oh, so immeasur?
ably beyond them.
And yet, blessed be this truth, they
said, not beyond humnn possibilities; no,
and not shining afar off. So near, indeed,
he was, they ceased to note the outward
look. With each one he was at home,
even within the inmost chambers of bis
soul No subterfuges, no disguises here.
Only, however, that which was best in
them was summoned to tho foreground.
All selfish ambition, jealousy, meanness,
greed, spite, every characteristic which in
their better moments they abh^jred^ wajf
shut away, else they could not have heard
"The kingdom of God is within ydu;M they
would not have seen, as was shown them
now, that holy of holies preserved in every
individual soul, which opens upward into
God's angelic world.
How much they lived in that period of
exaltation it would take ages to record.
But when their eyes were no more holden,
and they looked?what was it of that mir?
acle they saw? Just as a mere heap of
dust. It had served'its renovated purpose.
A moment's wrapping round of that en?
larged existence had covered an earthly
lifetime.?A. T. Perry in Home Journal.
A New Ornamental Tree.
Of this tree Mr. P. J. Berckmans says:
"The first tree of the umbrella form is re?
ported to have been round upon the land
of President Burnett, at San Jacinto,
Tex. I received a few seeds from that
tree some twenty years since, and the
seedlings have retained the identical form
of the parent. To distinguish this from
the common China tree I gave it the name
of Umbra culif ormis, with the approval of
Professor Asa Gray, who saw the young
trees here."
The trees are very desirable ornamental
shade trees for the south, being very rapid
growers and very symmetrical in shape.
The greatest objection is the fact that they
are deciduous. Speaking of this tree some
weeks ago we said that in the winter it
was the reverse of ornamental. We have
been requested to reverse this opinion.
We are not prepared to do so, but it is
merely a personal opinion, and no one
else need be influenced by it. In fact, we
today heard two gentlemen speak very
highly of its appearance in winter when
the leaves are off. It is, of course, quite
as regular and symmetrical in shape at
one time as at another, but the entire ab?
sence of any small twigs gives the branches
a rather uncouth, club shaped appearance.

"You would think that in this age ol
the world there was no man such a fogy
as not tobe up with the ordinary rules
and customs of hotel life." I had been
talking with the night clerk of theTre
mont. He continued: "An old man came
in to-night carrying his valise, to which
he clung as though it held all he had in
the world: The bell boy over there offered
to take it, but the old man ordered him to
stand back. Then he approached me and
said he wanted to go to bed. I saw that
he was a well meaning old gentleman and
unused to. city customs.' I asked him if
he wanted a room pretty high. He looked
at me and said he didn't want to go where
he couldn't get out if anything happened.
'And I don't want to be put in a bed with
anybody else, nutherl' he exclaimed.
'Want a bath?' I asked. At this he grew
furious, and said he had a good wash just
before he left home, and he didn't think
he was filthy yet, but he would probably
need a bath, ho said, by the time he got
ready to leave this tavern. I thought that
was one on me.
? "I persuaded him to register, and then
called the bell boy to show him up. The
old fellow objected. He said ho didn't
want no nigger prowlin' around the halls
with him. To please him I went with him,
and we got into the elevator. It is a fact
that the old fellow then grew speechless,
and when we reached the landing on the
fourth floor he asked me if there was no
other way of getting to the room. 'I'd
rather climb up a ladder from the out?
side,'he said, 'than to git into the box
agin. Sposin' that rope was to break?*

In a Chlneso Hospital.
In one of the most crowded thorough?
fares of the Chinese quarter of Shanghai
there has stood for forty years a free native
hospital, mainly supported by the Euro?
pean community. Very strange its wards
look at first to English visitors. The pa?
tients bring their own bedding, consisting
of a bamboo mat and a wadded quilt.
Those who can move about are the only
regular attendants of those who cannot.
The house surgeon and dispenser Is a
Christian Chinaman, for thirty years con?
nected with the hospital and one of the
first converts of a mission school. Yearly
about 800 patients pass through the wards,
and the proportion of deaths is small.
Lost year there were fifty-six, and in the
dispensary more than 22,000 cases were
treated.
From very far distances many of the
poor suffering creatures come, and back
to their far off homes many a healed ono
has carried a blessing greater than bodily
heahhg; for we believe that nowhere, at
home or abroad, could better proof be
found than in the Shanghai hospital of
the benefit of combining medical and Gos?
pel work. Daily the waiting room, seated
for 800, is crowded with men, women and
children long before the dispensing hour,
and daily an English missionary, as con?
versant with their language as his own,
Bets before this waiting multitude the
word of life. "I believe," writes a Chris?
tian physician, who for some years had
the oversight of this work, "that the Chi?
nese undergo more suffering for want of
medical knowledge than any other nation
in the world. In an institution like this,
almost daily under a good physician may
the blind receive sight, the deaf hear, the
lame walk."?The Quiver.
The Nonsense of Science
Sanitary science has worked much
good, but it has disseminated much non?
sense. Now it is the manufactured article
which is big with the germs of death; now
the water; now the air; now the milk. If
half that has been written of these sub?
jects were the truth, there would be no
further need for agitation. All the people
would have been dead long ago. As a
matter of fact, pujrity is an essential in
any article of popular consumption.
Everybody knows this, and, as a rule, an
effort is made to procure that which is
pure. When such end cannot be accom?
plished, sickness and perhaps death may
result. But the theory that everything
known is full of germs of fatality seems
incompatible with the fuct that people
continue to live.?Omaha Herald.

A Serious Loss to Georgia.
Atlanta, December IL?Gustave. J.
Orr, LL. D., Superintendent of Educa?
tion for the State of Georgia, and one of
the most distinguished educators in the
Southern States, died at bis home in
Atlanta to-day, after a short illness. The
immediate cause of death was brain
fever. Dr. Orr was born in Orrsville, S.
C, in 1819. When a boy he removed
with bis father's family to Jackson
County, Georgia. He was educated for
the law, bui never practiced that profes?
sion. He was fond of literature, and
preferred the quieter occupation of
teacher. He proved one of the most
successful teachers the State ever pro?
duced. He was a professor in Emory
College and was president of the Mason?
ic College. He wedded when a young
man Miss Anderson, daughter of Col.
Anderson, after whom the county of that
name in South Carolina was called.
Fifteen years ago he was appointed State
Superintendent of Education, and has
held that ever since. Ho is recognized
as the foundet of the public school sys
tern in Georgia. To him more than to
any other dozen men are the negroes
indebted for the educational advantages
they now enjoy. By whites and blacks
alike he was held in the highest esteem,
not alone for his great learning, but for
his benevolence. His funeral will take
place to morrow.

AMEiucrjs, December 7.?The saddest
case your correspondent has been called
upon to record is the sending of Mr. and
Mrs. S. S. Sullivan to the asylum, which
was done last Friday. Only a few years
ago Mr. "Sid" Sullivan was one of the
most reliable business men in this city
and was really an expert in book-keep
log. while bis wife, Mrs. Nora Sullivan,
was noted for her refinement of manner,
her literary accomplishments and ber
musical talent. She was prominent in
the leading charities of her church, while
emanations from her pen, both in prose
and r> thmic measure, frequently appeared
in the local press in advocacy of that
?iilch was noble, good and true. But
by some means tbey both became slaves
to the opium habit and later to liquor.
These evil habits, added to a consump?
tive constitution, in time lost to Mr. Sul
livao the confidence of the business
community, and he was unable to get re
munerative employment. They drifted
from bad to worse until they were tbrowu
upon the charities of the church.
Finally they became so irresponsible
that any contributions of money, or
articles that could be converted into
money, were sure to go for morphine and
whiskey.
Last week a commission passed upon
their condition and they were sent to the

Sam Satan.
Albany, Ga., December 11.?Upon
the Tarver plantation, in Baker County,
there is a negro, a giant in height, and
of almost superhuman strength. His
feet are large in proportion to bis stature,
and it being impossible to purchase any
shoes large enough for him at the stores,
tbey have to be made to order, at a great
outlay of leather aud cost. He puts his
large feet to excellent use, being a rapid
pedestrian. He frequently leaves the
plantation to foot it to town at the same
time that some other party departs
bebind a fast horse, and when the driver
reaches Albany, a distance of over
twenty miles, be finds the walker already
in the city, ne U fond of doiug acts of
great streogth aud prowess, and goes by
the name of Sam Satan.
Between the Tarver plantation and
town there lies an old cemetery. Once,
while making rapid strides toward Alba
ny, Sam neared the graveyard, and he
heard some one in a loud voice crying,
"Get up, get up," repeatedly. As he
reached the place he saw an old man
apparently driving a pair of white
Worses, and calling out to them in a loud
voice. Upon approaching the horses
and driver the trio suddenly disappeared.
There was a sudden rush of air oast him,
and all was still. No sign could be seen
of either horses or driver. Sara now
allows some distance to lie between him
and that resting place of the dead in his
pedestrian tours to Albany.
Mrs. Blaine Wins.
Mrs. Blaine won the first skirmish of
1888 over Mrs. Cleveland in this city at
the Baptist Fair last week, where there
was a spirited contest on party lines for
a beautiful quilt to be presented to one
of the two distinguished ladies named.
The contest was quite animated, and at
half past 9 on Saturday evening, within
an hour of the closing of the poll, the
vote was announced as 116 for Mrs.
Cleveland and 112 for Mrs. Blaine; but
the Republican blood of the old Repub
iican Gibraltar was warmed up on .the
homestretch, and when the vote was
finally announced, Mrs. Blaine was victor
by 178 to 136 for Mrs. Cleveland. In
the contest for the second quilt, in which
Mrs. Governor Beaver and Mrs. Ex-Gov
em or Pattison were made competitors,
Mrs. Pattison was victor by 111 to 86 for
Mrs. Bearer. The Baptist Fair thus
equally divided its political favors.
It was a plucky fight for Mrs. Cleve?
land to lead Mrs. Blaine in a strongly
Republican denomination and equally
strong Republican city, until the long
roll was sounded for a final charge for
her worthy competitor; and but for the
regular declaration of the vote at stated
periods, it is probable that Mrs. Cleve
land would have been victorious; but it
was highly creditable to Philadelphia,
where Blaine's majority was over 30,000,
to give Mrs. Blaine the quilt when Mrs.
Cleveland is presumably well supplied
with such articles in the White House.
It was one of the shrewd devices of
level-headed leaders of the Baptist Fair
to pit agaiust each other two of the most
respected women of the land to inspire
the enthuMPsm and enlarge the generos?
ity of their respective partisans; and the
good cause for which the Fair was held
profited by the quickened partisan sym
pat hies of visitors. If partisan feeling
was never summoned for a worse purpose,
it would always be well for the country.
?Philadelphia Times.
Blaine Is the Man.
The meeting of the National republi
can committee Thursday was one of the
most interesting in the historv of the
party, says the Washington correspon?
dent of the Baltimore Sun. The pro?
ceedings were of a spirited character
throughout and all the members pro?
fessed to have the brightest hopes for the
future. The friends of Mr. Blaine had
full control, and if there had been any
doubt before as to his intentions, what
took place to day settled decisively (hat
he is the man who will again make the
race with Cleveland. Mr. Blaine's
prompt comments on the president's
message, cabled from Paris and printed
this morning were regarded as a signifi?
cant indication by his friends in the
national committee. He preferred
Chicago for the meeting of the conven?
tion, and to Chicago it is to go. His
expressions on the message were
reechoed all day by his friends and in the
committee when (he doors were eloped.
Every doubtful Northern State was in
imagination carried-next November for
the republican candidate. The Virginia
republicans who addressed the commit tee
were most enthusiastic in their predic?
tions as to what Virginia would do next
year. Other Virginia republicans pri?
vately said they could carry Virginia
with Blaine, but with no other republican
candidate.
? In a Michigan lumber camp the
saw cut in two a large moccasin snake
that was embedded in the heart of a tree.
There was no opening at either end of
the log, and the lumbermen can account
for the snake's presence only upon the
hypothesis that it whh taken up in the
sap when very young.

What Is this Disease that is Coming
' ?? Upon Us?
like a thief at night it steals
in upon us unawares. The pa?
tients have pains about the
chest and sides, and sometimes
in the back. They feel dull
and sleepy; the mouth has a
bad taste, especially in the
morning. A sort of sticky slime
collects about the teeth. The
appetite is poor. There is a
f eeling like a heavy load on the
stomach; sometimes a faint, all
gone sensation at the pit of the
stomach which food does not
satisfy. The eyes are sunken,
the hands and feet become cold
and clammy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first dry, but
after a few months it is attend?
ed with a greenish-colored ex?
pectoration. The patient feels
tired all the while, and sleep
does not seem to afford any
rest. After a time he becomes
nervous, irritable and gloomy,
'and has evil forubodings. There
is a giddiness, a sort of whirl?
ing sensation in the head when
rising up suddenly. The bow?
els become costive; the skin is
dry and hot at times; the blood
becomes thick .and stagnant;
the whites of the eyes become
tiuged -with yellow; the urine
is scanty and high colored, de?
positing sediment after stand?
ing. There is frequently a
spitting up of the food, some
tunes with a sour taste and
sometimes with a sweetish
taste; this is frequently at?
tended with palpitation of the
heart; the vision becomes im?
paired, with spots before the
3yes; there is a feeling of great
prostration and weakness. All
of these symptoms are in turn
present. It is thought that
nearly one-third of our popu?
lation has this disease in some
of its varied forms.
It has been found that phy?
sicians have mistaken the cause
of this disease. Some have
' treated it for a liver complaint,
jthers for kidney disease, etc.,
etc., but none of these kinds of
treatment have been attended
with success; for it is really
constipation and dyspepsia. It
is also found that Shaker Ex?
tract of Boots, or Mother Sei
.??el's Curative Syrup, when
properly prepared will remove
uhis disease in all its stages.
Care must be taken, however,
to secure the genuine article.
IT WILL SELL BETTER THAN
COTTON.
Mr. John C. Hemptinstall,
of Chulafirmee, Cleburn Co.,
Ala., writes: "My wife has
been so much benefited by
Shaker Extract of Roots or
oingel's Syrup that she says
she would rather be without,
part of her food than without
the medicine. It has done her
more good than the doctors and
I all other medicines put together.
I would ride twenty miles to
get it into the hands of any suf?
ferer if he can get it in no other
way. I believe it will soon sell in
this State better than cotton.
TESTLMONY FROM TEXAS.
Mrs. S.E. Barton, of Varner,
Ripley Co., Mo., writes that
she had been long afflicted with
dyspepsia and disease of the
urinary organs and was cured
by Shaker Extract of Roots.
Rev. J. J. McG-uire, merchant,
of the same place, who sold
Mrs. Barton the medicine, SAys
he has sold it for four years
and never knew it to fail.

to-day I rejoice in good heal th.
